Fun experience hiking the river. Edgar was our guide and he was fun and informative. Would recommend Veranos as a excursion. Definitely bring bathing suit / extra drinking water.

Highly recommended

It was a great experience! The botanical gardens were awesome and the wildlife presence such as peacocks was unbelievable. Edgar was an amazing tour guide. He showed us about all the different trees and animals that were unique to the area. He even included interactive experiences such as walking through the river instead of hiking through the trees for a section. Also getting to jump in off cliffs into the water was crazy awesome. The price was super affordable even with a large family. We got picked up on the speedboat at 9 and it was a full day adventure lasting until four. The boat was nearly packed to arrive but we got a private tour with just us and Edgar. The rest of the families went on the zip lines but once we got to the bottom we all got together. The bottom was unique with a petting zoo, it had a baby spider monkey, two baby lemurs,a snake and a toucan you could hold. It was great and I highly recommend it.

A great tour with help from Edgar!

Booked this tour using capital one travel and we had a great time! Started at the botanical garden where we got a chance to view some glorious foliage before our hike began with mi amigo Edgar. He took my wife and I through a trail that was moderately difficult but he made it easy. Told us about native trees and plants, had us taste some berries and tree sap and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Edgar is the man! Finished the tour at the adventure park where we kayaked and swam and hit the water slides. Great trip!
